The goal of this paper is to highlight the lessons learned from a proof of concept configuration of Office SharePoint Server 2007 across two data centers that included database mirroring. The environment runs on Hyper-V, hosted on the 64-bit edition of the Windows Server® 2008 Enterprise operating system with Service Pack 1 (SP1). The mirroring solution this paper describes is based on the architecture described in the following white paper: Using Database Mirroring with Office SharePoint Server and Windows SharePoint Services (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=83725&clcid=0x409).
